We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wouldn't hesitate to stay again. It is a very private location with beautiful natural surroundings, but also conveniently close to Healesville and surrounding wineries and attractions.

Little Yarra Tiny House

KerriganRating, 5 stars4 days ago

Such a beautifully designed home. We were intrigued at the attention to detail and how much was included in such a small space - so effective and Ingenius! We went for a walk and said hi to the cattle. Really appreciate Katherine's special touches of kindness and generosity. Would have left a 'thank you message' if there was a guest book. Her welcome note was lovely and heartwarming. The peace, tranquility and privacy are amazing Would love to return, perhaps in the warmer months, so we can open the overhead sunroof. Highly recommend this getaway to everyone.

The Hidden Forest Cabin Olinda

SachinRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

It would be the perfect spot for a weekend getaway and digital detoxing. It only 10mins by walk from the closest public transportation (bus). The town is beautiful and calm with some cozy cafes making the property a beautiful spot to get some peace from daily hustle. Sharon was extremely helpful with providing instructions and answering all my questions patiently, which made getting there less stressful. I would definitely recommend this place (I have already recommended it to a few friends).
